Sevilla plotting raid for Chelsea striker Michy Batshuayi

The La Liga side want to boost their attacking options ahead of next season.

And while some had assumed they could move for former striker Carlos Bacca, who’s closing in on an exit from AC Milan, apparently they're looking to the Premier League for some young talent.

Don Balon say Sevilla are eyeing Chelsea ace Batshuayi as a candidate for a summer transfer.

Apparently they’re looking to add new talent after being disappointed by their Champions League elimination at the hands of Leicester City in the round of 16.

The 10 stars who could replace Michy Batshuayi at Chelsea

Batshayi barely played in his debut campaign for Chelsea, with the bulk of his game time coming in the domestic cup competitions.

Although he did score four goals in the last three league games of the Blues’ season, ultimately bagging the decider in a 1-0 win over West Brom that sealed the Premier League crown for Antonio Conte in his first season in London.

Batshuayi has also been linked with a move to West Ham.

And the 23-year-old recently said he was expecting clubs to get in contact with him in the near future over his future.

“I’m not the master of my destiny. Chelsea bought me, they can do what they want with me,” he told RMC Sport.

“I’m going to finish with the national team and then I expect I’ll have a few phone calls. I’ll see with my agent and the club.

“I want to play, score as many goals as possible and be at the World Cup.”
